Division 1
Verellen took the lead in both races, but each time he was beaten by old fox Martin. Vanierschot was close behind, helped by the curvy track. While guest stars van de Poele (Moneytron Ferrari) and Bachelart (Porsche) spiced up the field, poor Guyaux destroyed his car in practice. Polesitter Semoulin’s practice luck (a dry lap just before the rain set in) was followed by bad luck on Sunday, with two DNFs.

Division 2
A Peugeot party in race 1, a 1-2-3 with Tillekaerts fourth, and a single Peugeot in front in race 2 was followed by the first podiums of Plennevaux (Golf) and Devrin (Kadett).
